AI Thread Summary
In the discussion, a participant points out errors in two math problems. For problem #59, the correct operation is to subtract the square of the domain element, not the cube. In problem #60, the expression should be simplified to "3√x" instead of writing it as "√x + √x + √x." The corrections clarify the necessary operations for both problems. Overall, the focus is on ensuring accurate mathematical notation and operations.

For 59 you have "- x3" when you should be subtracting the square.

For 60 you have "\sqrt{x}+ \sqrt{x}+ \sqrt{x}" for "add three times the square root". That will work but should be written more simply as "3\sqrt{x}".

The others are correct.
 
my dear

#59 what is wrong ?

# 60
F(x) = -8xccube + 3square root of 3

now is ok?

#59 "subtracts the square of the domain element", not the cube of it, as you have.
#60 Correct. F(x) = -8x3 + 3\sqrt{3}
 
In #59 the question says "...then subtract the square of the domain element..." (maybe the underline is the key here :wink:)
But you have subtracted the cube.
the square ---> x2
the cube ----> x3

See the dilemma?

For #60 yes that is ok now.
 
thanks very much for helping me
 
I picked up this problem from the Schaum's series book titled "College Mathematics" by Ayres/Schmidt. It is a solved problem in the book. But what surprised me was that the solution to this problem was given in one line without any explanation. I could, therefore, not understand how the given one-line solution was reached. The one-line solution in the book says: The equation is ##x \cos{\omega} +y \sin{\omega} - 5 = 0##, ##\omega## being the parameter. From my side, the only thing I could...
Essentially I just have this problem that I'm stuck on, on a sheet about complex numbers: Show that, for ##|r|<1,## $$1+r\cos(x)+r^2\cos(2x)+r^3\cos(3x)...=\frac{1-r\cos(x)}{1-2r\cos(x)+r^2}$$ My first thought was to express it as a geometric series, where the real part of the sum of the series would be the series you see above: $$1+re^{ix}+r^2e^{2ix}+r^3e^{3ix}...$$ The sum of this series is just: $$\frac{(re^{ix})^n-1}{re^{ix} - 1}$$ I'm having some trouble trying to figure out what to...
